Counsel, House Armed Services Committee, who told me that H. R. 6483,
the bill for promotion of members of the Marine Corps to full general
was reported out by the full Committee but that one member has insisted

requesting hearing by the Rules Committee on the bill is in the mill, the
hearing cannot take place earlier than the week of 7 June. Consideration on 25X1
